It would be good if the mods moved old (but classic) threads to the Polls forum for everyone to see. Kind of like an archive.

Nothing would happen. The Admins don't do anything, ever.

Just close the damn thing, it should have been dead long ago.

It is annoying, though. Really.

OMFG.

I think we should use it as a dump.

Or yeah, move classic topics there, that would be fun too.

Many of the 'classics' are mockeries of other users, or where infamous users made themselves look foolish. Such an action would recieve many, many negative reactions.

That does strike a good point, but maybe if there was an important thread (or announcement if you will) that everyone needed to see, it could be useful. Although I guess it's made redundant by sticky topics.

If we did move classic topics there, we should close them, copy them to the forum closed, and then unclose 'em in their original forum.

I think that's a fantastic idea... but only really good topics... not your run-of-the-mill mildly entertaining one.

why close them first? only admin can post in polls, and that includes replies. the topic is completely dead from a user/mod point of view.

I especially want to see the "Justin doesn't really know 10 languages!" thread in the Polls section. I wish that the ghetto topic wasn't in the middle of a bigger one, that would make it so much easier to see.

Hmmm, although I originally thought it would be a great idea, it may not be so. As TTIG said earlier we would get alot of complaints, plus the fact that once moved there nothing else can be done to it, including deleting the thread.

They're not going to get much more use just sitting in the endless pages of the forums.

This is why we should have a moderator for the polls forum. We've finally found a use for it.

Dibs have already been called, (http://www.offspring.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15018) but every forum has two mods.

I call dibs.

But seriously, is there somebody to contact in Liberation Media about our admins quitting? Otherwise, this is pointless.

seeing as they ignore emails, i've been considering calling them. but i'm too lazy to dial an area code. i'm also not up for the two hour drive to bitch in person.

I'd totally be up for a drunk dial. Any time of the day.

I got his voicemail. Didn't say anything yet. I'll plan my strategy first. Don't want to to look too bad in front of the boss. However, will be done soon. Adriann is testament to the fact that I'm willing to dial random numbers.

Adriann's sadistic with phone numbers, she used to call me at 4 in the morning. Damn time zones.
